Weekly Wrap-up for October 3, 2010: Glad September is Over

I am so glad to put September behind me. It was a month where nothing seemed to get accomplished!

In reading news, I finished a grand total of ONE book. And it wasn't even a book off my list. Instead, it was a book I grabbed out of frustration off my shelf one night. So, no progress was made towards my goal.

In some ways, that makes me feel like a failure, but it was bound to happen. I just kind of sputtered to a halt, and hopefully that is at an end.

As for Villette, I finally finished it this morning. It took me over a month to read it, and I am so glad to be moving on to some other novels. I really did love it, but you'll have to wait for my full thoughts on it.

I still have Bleak House waiting for me on my nightstand. I haven't touched it in awhile, but I know I need to finish it in time for the end of Amanda's readalong.

I have a few other titles lingering on the nightstand that have been there for awhile: Lolita, On the Road, A Separate Peace...One of those might be read first.

Anyway, I hope to get at least ten titles read this month, including a spookier read in honor of Halloween. Wish me luck!

As everyone has said, don't worry it happens to us all. The great thing about books and blogging is at the end of the day you don't owe anyone anything. We read and blog because we love it, not because of deadlines or obligations! Maybe pick up a fun no hassle read to get you back in the spirit, that always seems to help me!
